Desert Island Explorer is an engaging, two-week game-based sub unit designed for grades 5 to 9, offering an immersive and bilingual experience centered around the theme of desert islands. This project-based learning module combines elements of language arts, science, and teamwork to enhance students' critical thinking, creativity, and collaborative skills.

• Lessons are provided in English, and all activities within are French and English.
• These products work in English or French classrooms.

Nothing is more stressful than having to leave work for an extended time: our profession requires us to plan, to create engaging resources, and to assume the subs covering have French capabilities. We all know that's... not the reality of this profession. When you've gotta be out, you've gotta be out, and frankly, when you're in this position, you've not got the time, energy or mental health to allow for this level of planning. That's where I come in! This ressource covers you for roughly two weeks: providing your sub with direction in English, and activities in both English and French to ensure a seamless absence... And if you aren't actually out (or maybe you're checked out and just a body in the room!) but just want someone to tell you what to do for 2 weeks, this checks out for that, too.

I integrate discussion-based prompts, writing activities, reading activities, film watching, reflections, games, math tasks, group work, projects, presentations, art tasks - just about everything to keep them engaged while you're away! This is a clear and engaging this resource for your next emergency absence.

In this mega crypt of activities relating to desert island survival, you'll discover the following activities:

• All lesson plans (in English) for 15 activities and projects;
• Desert Island Charades (An engaging team activity where they must act out different desert island scenarios and go head-to-head against the opposing team);
• Island Survival Expedition (A team-based activity on choosing the items to bring to a desert island - without surpassing a maximum weight limit);
• Shipwrecked (An activity which will have students ranking items based on their importance for survival after being shipwrecked);
• A Brief History of the Message in a Bottle with 2 questions;
• Make Your Own Message in a Bottle (An engaging, meaningful task which involves students writing, decorating, "throwing to sea" and finding bottles with their classmates);
• Bottle + old paper templates (For use with Message in a Bottle activities);
• Dilemme sur une île déserte (4 pages of math activities - French only);
• 2 x Reading comprehension:
  • “Perdus en mer” (French only - grades 7-9) with questions;
  • “L’Île mystérieuse” (French only - grades 4-6) with questions.
• Desert Island Dilemma (A writing prompt with information for idea generation);
• Film project (Success criteria and rubrics included for this team-based, drama-focused task);
• The great survival strategy (Stations activity on persuasive language techniques and strategies)
• The great survival strategy (Persuasive prompt following the stations activity)
• Jeopardy-style flash cards (Whole group team-based game on finding the best answer)
• Watch + Respond (A film to be viewed with examples on how to engage students with their listening)
• Watch + Respond (Student question list - English only)
• Watch + Respond (Collaborative question cards - English only)
• The Ultimate Survival Guide (A final project which will have students creating pamphlets, brochures or an infographic on a desert island. Includes success criteria and rubrics in both English and French).

Hopefully this provides a sense of relief and calm to you in this time of need!

Una historia, dos perspectivas: explorando la subjetividad y la empatía a través de narrativas de doble perspectiva

Descripción :

Sumérgete en el mundo de la subjetividad y la empatía con "Una historia, dos vistas", una colección única de ocho cuentos, cada uno contado desde dos puntos de vista opuestos. Diseñada para los grados 5 y 4, esta herramienta invita a los lectores a examinar situaciones familiares desde diferentes perspectivas, fomentando la comprensión, la compasión y el pensamiento crítico.

Cada historia presenta dos personajes distintos, como el tímido nuevo estudiante y el alborotador payaso de la clase, o el atleta decidido y el artista apasionado. Al presentar ambas perspectivas una al lado de la otra, estas historias invitan a los estudiantes a ponerse en el lugar de cada personaje, explorando sus pensamientos, sentimientos y motivaciones. A través de las historias, desarrollarán una mejor comprensión del papel que juegan la personalidad, las prioridades y las experiencias de vida en la percepción del mundo.

¡Pero el aprendizaje no termina con las historias mismas! Este recurso integral también incluye 20 actividades interesantes y preguntas de debate, lo que brinda a los maestros una gran cantidad de herramientas para profundizar las lecciones sobre empatía y toma de perspectiva. Desde análisis comparativos y ejercicios de escritura hasta juegos de roles y conexiones con el mundo real, estas actividades están diseñadas para ayudar a los estudiantes a internalizar los mensajes de las historias y aplicarlos a sus propias vidas.

Lo más destacado de “Una historia, dos vistas”:

• 8 historias cortas cautivadoras, cada una contada desde dos puntos de vista opuestos
• Fomenta la empatía, el pensamiento crítico y la apreciación de diversos puntos de vista.
• Incluye 20 actividades y preguntas de discusión para una mayor exploración.
• Adaptable a diferentes contextos de aula y estilos de aprendizaje.

Al explorar estas historias de doble perspectiva y participar en las actividades que las acompañan, los estudiantes:

• Desarrollar una comprensión más profunda de la empatía y la subjetividad.
• Reconocer la importancia de considerar múltiples puntos de vista.
• Fortalecer su pensamiento crítico y sus habilidades analíticas.
• Mejorar sus habilidades de comunicación oral y escrita.
• Promover una comunidad escolar más solidaria e inclusiva

“Una historia, dos perspectivas” es una herramienta esencial para cualquier docente que desee promover el aprendizaje socioemocional, la educación del carácter y el desarrollo de habilidades del siglo XXI. ¡Descárgalo ahora y observa cómo tus estudiantes se vuelven personas más comprensivas, empáticas y de mente abierta!

Creating a Student Success Guidebook (brochure project) gives students an opportunity to share their knowledge and tips for success in middle school with the following year’s new incoming class of students. This is perfect for a technology or leadership class, or for a club that focuses on assisting students, such as Student Council. Students work in small teams to research an assigned topic about expectations in middle school, specific to their school. Next, they create one page of a brochure with their information which will finally be combined with the other teams’ pages to create a full brochure that can be published and distributed to incoming students. The project was created for 8th graders but could easily be adapted to use with 5th or 6th graders leaving elementary school and providing tips for success to new elementary students, or could be used by sophomores (or above) in high school to create a success guide for incoming high school freshmen.

Great end of year project!!
